Job Description
The individual selected for this position will supervise the educational services and facilities of Great Basin College (GBC) in Nye County, Nevada, including the daily operations of a center in Pahrump and other rural satellite centers. This will include the supervision of non-academic faculty employees at the GBC centers in this region.
The position, which is based in Pahrump, Nevada, requires occasional travel to the Elko campus and other areas for meetings. Travel is usually by driving a car for long distances (hundreds of miles), with or without accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

This position reports to the Vice President for Student and Academic Affairs.

Evidence of previous organizational and administrative experience, preferably in an educational setting, is required. Previous experience in a community college setting will be an asset to the applicant.
-
Communication skills are essential to the position.
-
Microsoft Office and general computer skills are required to perform the duties of this position successfully.
